Pushing Practice

Welcome to Pushing Practice. This podcast has been create to share digital and strategic design and innovation stories in New Zealand and give a window on our practice to those overseas.You can also visit our Soundcloud page to get the latest episodes as they come out.

Please note: These podcasts are free and frank conversations with adults, so there may be colourful language at times. We hope this doesn't affect your enjoyment.

In the very first podcast, Penny talks about UX when the internet was new, participatory design and how her role has morphed from leading design teams to creating containers for them to develop practice.

We have learned as lot from this first prototype. The audio is a bit rough 'n' ready in places, and we're hoping to improve this in the next iteration.

Matt talks about being a designer in the UK and working with hyper-specialists, coming back to New Zealand to do UX, as well as trying to push design practice in his own way with the UX Homegrown conference.

Anne talks about life in the Navy, discovering design thinking and honing her skills at the D-school and working with Iwi and Māori organisations on design-led innovation in New Zealand.

We learned a few things from Ep01 and ironed out a few creases in the process. Enjoy!
